I gave this a five star rating, although I was really thinking of four and a half stars.
The item arrived quickly, and in good condition, although one bulb cover was broken, despite the bubble wrap, the company quickly sent a new one to replace it at no cost. The item came with everything needed to install it, other than the screwdriver and a hammer, a level, and a pair of gloves(see below). I had the entire thing installed in about 30 minutes. The front forks that hold on the glazed glass can move a little bit, and I wish they were more sturdy--this is the reason for the half-star I would take off. But it is a minor complaint, and because they can move a little, you can ensure they are straight before putting the glass in. The glass holds them completely in place.
The light is emitted by four tiny halogen bulbs (With instructions on the boxes NOT to handle them with your bare hands--have some latex gloves around for installation, or some clean kitchen gloves). These bulbs throw an incredible amount of light, and the frosted glass does an excellent job of ensuing this light reaches every corner of the room, without actually being a blinding light. It has a nice finish, and once it was in place, was quite sturdy.
The installation process involved taking off the back cover (held on by four screws, inset, so they do not really show when installed), install the backplate: This requires two screws being screwed into the electrical box, and two optional screws that can be installed in the anchors. I used both sets of screws. Take the main unit, and connect the wires (there are three, white, black, and ground). They provide covers and a ground screw for each. Put the main unit on the backplate, and replace the four screws to hold it in place. (Note: To ensure it is straight, the two screws that go into the electrical box are able to slide around until tightened. Use a level to ensure they are straight, mark where you want to put the anchors, remove the back plate from the wall, and put in the anchors, replace it, and put in all four screws at this point, using the level one last time to make sure it is straight. If you are worried about the screws popping through the backplate, just use a couple of washers on the two screws going into the electrical box). Now, using gloves, take out the four light bulbs and lightly push them into place. They don't screw in, they just push in. Then, screw the four bulb covers on. Carefully take the glass sheet out, and slide it into place on the three forks. And....turn on your light. Done.
Simple, quick, and a beautiful and bright light fixture!
